    Nose Radius = 1 – 8 mm, f =? Rt = 5 microns (Peak to valley height.)

    0.005 =
    f2
    8Rt

    f = √0.005 × 8 × 1.8 = 0.268 mm / rev

    Correct Option: A

    α = 10°, φ = 20°
    Ernest & Merchants' theory 2φ + β – α = 90°
    2 × 20 + β – 10 = 90°
    40 + β – 10 = 90°
    β = 60°

    Correct Option: C

    α = 10°, φ = 20°
    Ernest & Merchants' theory 2φ + β – α = 90°
    2 × 20 + β – 10 = 90°
    40 + β – 10 = 90°

    Maximum temperature at the chip tool interface is 2 – 3 mm away from cutting edge because shank provides rapid heat dissipation just below the cutting edge.

    Correct Option: B

    Maximum temperature at the chip tool interface is 2 – 3 mm away from cutting edge because shank provides rapid heat dissipation just below the cutting edge.
